HMS Sultan show 2013 (Saturday 15th June)

[Burrell8]

Here are the best of my photos (I'm no David C!). A nice couple of hours spent at the show then a windy hour (Gale force 8) spent on the sea front at Stokes bay in the evening.


Even got Mrs Burrell8 filming (to be added) and Mini Burrell8 going "Choo cho cho cho" at each engine as it passed (he's 17 months old)!!! - Mission accomplished!

Tom, It was bloody cold on that seafront, i stayed in the car in between the engines! You have got some good photos, I tried the get a shot from the beach, but instead got wet and very cold ha!

Where were you sat Robin? We were in the middle car park just before the bit where the spray was coming over the road and they all got soaked, especially the models!!! I did try to warn them as they went past!

A few videos. Taken by the Mrs Burrell8, most were out of focus as her phone focused on the heated windscreen elements of my windshield.
However, the Sentinel was just too fast to focus on!!!

Nice pics Tom. Looks like Mr Field has had the paintbrushes out, very smart indeed.

A big thanks must go out all the engines a brilliant weekend was had and a big thankyou to all of my team who i had working like dogs all weekend. They came along expecting a weekend as waggon drivers and stokers and went away as barman, chefs, pot washers and a bit of driving and stoking. Thanks again and hope to see all again at next years show.

It was another good show shame about the gale force wind on Saturday. I managed to see Garrett tractor Dorothy and Fowler Adagio at lee on Solent on Sunday evening.
